Re: [NTG-context] texfont produces faked ligatures with ec encoding

No, I never had problems with Umlauts.

Now I've found lm-ec.enc in another texmf tree. When I copy lm-ec.enc to the directory where I run texfont, it works fine.

What you can also try is this: if you open EC.enc, you'll find a couple of LIGKERN instructions at the beginning of the file. These seem to confuse some utilities so they don't include the default ligatures anymore. So what you can do: just delete lines 1-27 of EC.enc, so the first line is /ECEncoding [ % now 256 chars follow

Then save this new file in the directory where you run texfont so it will be found first. You can discard it afterwards.

With this trick, it works as well. Thanks for your help Andreas
